Nadia Alkhun

"Biomes Under the Surface"

Alkhun’s artworks are influenced by biology to communicate her vision of the real world. Her paintings take the form of imagined abstraction of new biospheres that reflect our lives’ diversity, complexity, and connectivity. Alkhun captures the unseen, chaotic, and ambiguous details of nature, allowing the viewer to experience the freedom of imagination.

Lydia Hansen

"Sensory Sculpture Garden"

The Sensory Sculpture Garden is a touch-friendly exhibition. Using abstract shapes which mimic nature or mathematical patterns within crochet, Hansen creates a multitude of 3D shapes that are assembled to showcase tactile experience of hard, soft, smooth, rough, fuzzy, springy, and more.

Quenten Brown

"King Salad"

Brown’s two dimensional, modern, and abstract paintings on canvas and wood have an emphasis on bright, bold colors and clean swooping lines. Brown pulls inspiration from all areas of life, such as traffic lights, automobiles, superheroes, and the local radar.
